Our Publication Scheme
As part of the Freedom of Information Act 2000 we are required to have a Publication Scheme and have adopted the standard Publication Scheme published by the Information Commissioner's Office.
The scheme sets out the kind of information we routinely make available to the public as part of our normal business activities.
It points to information we are required by law to make public and has the intention of making information available, easy to find and use, without people having to contact the Council.
A large amount of information is already available on this website, but if you want more information contact us and if we can supply it, we will.

Children in our care
When a child or young person is looked after, they might live with an 'in-house' council foster carer; an independent foster carer; or with carers in a children's home.
The table below shows the number of children residing in each type of placement mentioned above, in the last five financial years.
Dates | Foster Care - Local Authority foster Carer | Foster Care - Independent Foster Agency (IFA) | Children's home | Foster Care - Kinship (friends and family) | Placed with parents | Other |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025 | 168 | 142 | 109 | 258 | 110 | 143 |
| 1 April 2023 to 31 March 2024 | 171 | 146 | 103 | 227 | 126 | 149 |
1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023 | 177 | 146 | 112 | 220 | 128 | 139 |

The figures above are taken from the data available on our system on 22 February 2024. Some children will have experienced a change of placement type within the reporting year and will therefore have been counted in more than one category.
Other placements include (but are not limited to) adoptive placements; independent living placements; secure units; family assessment centres; Young Offenders Institutions; and placements within a Health or NHS Trust.
